Ron Paul: Conviction, Not Compromise!

Are you ready to watch Ron Paul’s much-anticipated first TV ad for the 2012 primaries?

Released earlier today, the 65-second spot is dedicated to Ron Paul’s principled stance on the debt ceiling controversy. As we all know, only Ron Paul will not compromise when it comes to cutting spending and balancing the budget!

Watch the ad now:

In the 1980s they did it to Reagan – a debt ceiling compromise, Democrats promising spending cuts, but delivering only tax hikes. The 1990s brought more compromises, more broken promises and more new taxes. This August, the next chapter will be written, a defining moment. $14 trillion in debt, millions unemployed, the dollar in decline. We know where they stand. But will our party’s leaders repeat the mistakes of the past? Will they choose compromise or conviction? One candidate has always been true, Ron Paul. Cut spending, balance the budget, no deals. Standing up to the Washington machine, guided by principle. Restore America now.

Reactions

Great ad. Very topical, as it leverages TEA Party disgust over Boehner and McConnell rolling over to let Obama raise the debt ceiling so they can hopefully blame the Democrats in the fall. Americans know we’re WAY beyond playing the blame game, and it’s long past time to do something. They’re finally figuring out the fact that the GOP establishment differs from the Democratic establishment in marketing only. They’re both the party of big government. Ron Paul 2012!

Outstanding! It’s great and it’s much more polished than 2008.

Very exciting ad. Makes the right point that compromise with reducing the increases only yields more than what should be and feeds the big government machine with our labors and our children’s future. What part of CUT don’t you understand? We cannot have less government while spending ever more! Chop spending to equal revenues, end of story.
Great ad – well done – share with everyone in your email address book!!! Let’s go viral !!!

That was the best campaign commerical I have ever seen. First class all the way.

ancientwisdom2012:

conviction is based on fundamental principles that do not change when circumstances change, because they are always valid (like freedom and rights). (based in courage)
compromise (of principles), is sophistry, which changes to suit an agenda and in order to deceive and manipulate. (based in fear and a reactionary, irrational nature)(giving up freedom for the illusory “security”…)

Robert M.:

Ron Paul is vilified by Republicans and Democrats, marginalized by the news media and a clear and present danger to the global elite.

Furthermore, he is the ONLY Presidential Candidate with the historical conviction, unwavering values and powerful intellect that can provide true leadership in our country’s time of need.

He’s more than a mere candidate, he is an idea whose time has come!

By way of comparison, here’s a quick flashback to Ron Paul’s first TV ad back from the 2008 election season.

The ostensibly low-budget homage to Ron Paul became an online sensation and an instant classic with grassroots supporters, but it did not have much of an impact on New Hampshire voters.

Please vote for Ron Paul America! I'm from Sweden, and I can really say that with Obama and Bush, USA's reputation in other west countries and the world as a whole, have not been that good. Every word coming out of Pauls mouth is so true. So, America, make the whole world a favour and vore for Ron Paul!

Ron Paul needs 50 million PPL to go online & get a CAP, or a SHIRT - a BUMPER sticker, a BADGE, or a YARD SIGN & be a 100% vocal presense daily & if 50 million would also go to his OFFICIAL web page the MEDIA would report that & just imagine if those 50 million plain ol PPL donated just $10 EA & he in one mo raised $500,000,000.00 to defeat ObamaNation what the USA would be like in just 16 more months!!! RON PAUL will END THE FED & , FIRE the IRS & print REAL USA money & BRING HOME TROOPS NOW

I got shivers down my spine. No matter whose name is on the ballot, this time I'm voting Ron Paul. I made a mistake last election...I won't do that again. Real, lasting, positive change...not just for America, but for the world. This is the American people's last chance. This is the line in the sand. This is where we stand against oppression, tyranny, and unbridled corruption. Let's be the real change we hope for; let's vote for Ron Paul.

In other words, Dr. Paul was decades ahead of his time -- and the populace is FINALLY catching up. Because the populace is FINALLY waking up to Dr. Paul and the truth of his message, phony politicians such as Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney are attempting to garner support by aligning their views with Dr. Paul's message.

In reality, Republican candidates such as those phonies and are bought and paid for by the establishment and are therefore for the status quo, NOT real change.

listen ron paul supporters this is very important: ron paul is not very well known right now. he is underfunded and disliked by the big media, so this is what you have to do. send this video to EVERYONE. view it multiple times to get it on youtubes main page. like the video and send this man however much money you can possibly spare
this man is our last chance, if he doesnt win America will fall
like this comment to get it to the top so everyone can see. this is so important.

Ron Paul is much more mainstream than what the media will admit. The good news is that people are finding out on their own. They are waking up to the fact that the mainstream media is lying to them. The do realize that Congressman Paul is the only candidate who will actually tell the truth and change the status quo in Washington DC.
